This blog was set up for the spreads that I do in my daily life art journal. It is simply a Mead Composition notebook where most of the pages have been transformed with acrylic paint, rubber stamps, magazine clippings, bits of my calligraphy, and my writing about whatever happened to me that day.

Visit to New JoAnn's

The background for these pages was "Bright Yellow" and "Wild Berry" overbrushed with "Cream" when dry. I inked up a foam butterfly stamp that I found in JoAnn's $1.00 bin with the Versacolor "Velveteen" pad.

About Me

My first love in the world of art was calligraphy. I have studied with more than 60 instructors. This led me to various other art pursuits including watercolor, rubber-stamping, book-making, and art journaling. I am now retired and free to play with all kinds of art techniques, but spent 31 years as a classroom teacher and school librarian.
